Monthly Blog Roundup: WordStream’s August Highlights
September 11, 2017
August was a very graphic month for WordStream. I’m not talking about anything R-rated (though our marketing meetings can get pretty violent)—I’m talking about infographics!
Who doesn’t love infographics? Definitely not us. I mean, we definitely don’t not love them. I mean, we love them. And you all love them too, judging from the page views. And you loved hearing about our infographic strategy almost as much as loved the infographics themselves.
Here are the top 10 most popular posts from the WordStream blog in August:
